Association between EEG predictor variables and cognitive score changes from baseline to post-operative day 1.

Cognitive outcome variable: Change in attention score
EEG predictor variable Correlation
Unadjusted proportional odds models
Adjusted proportional odds models*
Spearman ρ (95% CI) p-value Odds ratio (95% CI) p-value Odds ratio (95% CI) p-value
Pre-operative AUC 0.10 (−0.18, 0.37) 0.49
Intra-operative AUC −0.05 (−0.32, 0.23) 0.73
Difference in AUC −0.12 (−0.39, 0.16) 0.39
Crossover location (N = 42**) 0.29 (−0.02, 0.55) 0.060 1.25 (0.99, 1.58) 0.058 1.25 (0.99, 1.59) 0.066

Cognitive outcome variable: Change in delirium severity score
EEG predictor variable Correlation
Unadjusted linear regression models
Adjusted linear regression models*
Spearman ρ (95% CI) p-value Mean difference (95% CI) p-value Mean difference (95% CI) p-value

Pre-operative AUC −0.08 (−0.35, 0.22) 0.61
Intra-operative AUC 0.06 (−0.23, 0.34) 0.67
Difference in AUC 0.17 (−0.12, 0.44) 0.24
Crossover point (N = 42**) −0.31 (−0.57, 0.01) 0.054 −0.10 (−0.23, 0.03) 0.11 −0.10 (−0.23, 0.03) 0.12

*Adjusted proportional odds model included the following covariables: age, body mass index, cardiovascular disease.

**Restricted analysis excludes eight participants with atypical MSE curves (multiple crossover points).

Values that are significant or nearly significant are bolded.
